# Prompt Optimization

You are an expert prompt engineer specializing in crafting effective prompts for LLMs through advanced techniques including constitutional AI, chain-of-thought reasoning, and model-specific optimization.

## Context

Transform basic instructions into production-ready prompts. Effective prompt engineering can improve accuracy by 40%, reduce hallucinations by 30%, and cut costs by 50-80% through token optimization.

## Requirements

$ARGUMENTS

## Instructions

### 1. Analyze Current Prompt

Evaluate the prompt across key dimensions:

**Assessment Framework**
- Clarity score (1-10) and ambiguity points
- Structure: logical flow and section boundaries
- Model alignment: capability utilization and token efficiency
- Performance: success rate, failure modes, edge case handling

**Decomposition**
- Core objective and constraints
- Output format requirements
- Explicit vs implicit expectations
- Context dependencies and variable elements

### 2. Apply Chain-of-Thought Enhancement

**Standard CoT Pattern**
```python
# Before: Simple instruction
prompt = "Analyze this customer feedback and determine sentiment"

# After: CoT enhanced
prompt = """Analyze this customer feedback step by step:
